It was just about that time that Prince Area Selassie, the only son and heir apparent of the late Negus Johannes, was adjourning with his tutor and mentor, Gen or "Ras "Michael, in Sutul, on the Gallo-Abyssinian border, fell in with the only sin of the Galla Queen, On one day, when a "fair was being held in the town the two young princes amused them- selves by performing divers feats of equestri anism, among albers that known as tent pegging, in which the rider transfixes with his lance a tent peg stuck in the ground while cashing past at full gallop. The Galla prince excelled in this particular form of sport, and Prince Area Selassie fell behind. The latter goaded to fury by the jeers which his frequent failures to touch the peg excited among the onlookers in the market. place, at length ended by drawing his revolver. and firing point-blank at the queen's son, who only escaped with his life and sustained several serious wounds. The Galla queen vowed vengeance. She summoned a body of 3000 cavalry to aims, placed herself at their bead, and three days later inflicted such a lesson on the arrogant Prince Area as he was not likely to forget. Three hundred of his followers and adherents were massacred in cold blood by her mounted warriors, and the young imperial prince was subjected to ignominious treatment before being allowed to take his departure from the

Curiously enough, his father, the fanatic old Negus John, instead of taking steps to punish the lady, determined to win her over to his side. He was shrewd enough to realize that such a dashing cavalry general would be more preferable as friend than as a fore. He therefore lost no
time in contracting an offensive and defensive
alliance with her; almost overwhelmed her with
honors, presents and dignities, and finally entrusted her with the command of his magnificent cavalry, which is recruited mainly from the members of the Galla tribe, which is known throughout the world for its superb equestrianism and for its perfect physique. It was at the head of the imperial cavalry that she took part in the 1888 campaign against the Italians, and it was she who was held responsible for the terrible massacre of the Arab and Mussulman inhabitants of the district of Ailet, who were rightly or wrongly suspected of entertaining sympathies for the Italians.

This Company has been formed to work the business of the late Joseph Balsamo, who, it is well-known, discovered the secret of perpetual youth. Since the death of his friend Dumas (père) he has been engaged in astral peregrina. tions, which have greatly extended bls vast accumulations of knowledge, and has now returned to the earth to give mankind the benent of his experience for which he considers the time in ripe,
Amongst other discoveries he has found a people on the obverse side of the moon who conduct all the processes of life by electricity, where conscience does not exist, and where marriage is not a failure. In this happy society no births or deaths take place, and agnosticism is unknown.
There are no theologians or scientists, politi clans or diplomatists, for every individual is transparent, and can see through himself as well

Proto- plasm is produced at will by turning on different tapa oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and carbonic acid; these are combined in such a way as to produce any kind of food or drink at a moment's notice. A delicious leg of multon or a haunch of venison, a pullet or a turkey, without bone and easy to carve, can be manufactured in five minutes, and cooked in a second by an electric spark. The most delicious vegetables and fruits of the tropical and temperate zones are produced with equal facility, the dessert being only pre- pared while the dinner is being removed. The wines are similarly prepared of pure elements, are highly refreshing, and non-intoxicating, and, being uncontaminated by any fermentive process, the pure ethereal flavour is enhanced, and exhilaration is produced without ebriety.
The old Sunday observance question-that hoary problem which first started when the primeval patriarch nefatiously navigated the Ark on the day of rest-is again, says the Sydney Bulletin, in full blast in Melbourne. For years and years the inhabitant of that priest-ridden, parson-sodden city has loafed wearily in the gutters on the Sabbath day, and dejectedly fitted his feet into the cracks of the pavement, and surreptitiously shuffled round to the back door of the pub, and implored the landlord for a drink, and has trailed dejectedly through the empty parks or lounged profanely along that infamous waste which forms the shore of Hobson's Bay; and for the rood of his soul all rational recrea tion has been denied him. The proposal to open the public libraries, museums, and art-galleries has been mooted a hundred times, and as often it has been suppressed, lest these opportunities for mental improvement should draw off the attende ance at the tabernacle, where the preacher shakes up the old dry bones of dogma or snuffles with a dolorous hum of wailing lamentation over his dead brother-the extinct Pharisee of the past, The Daily Telegraph in particular, as the voice of clerical intolerance, has lifted up its inky dirge over the sinfulness of a scheme whereby some dozen officials would be required to break the Sabbath and knock the pieces about for the public convenience; and when a great public demonstration was held last week in defence of the proposed innovation, and a few of the more advanced clergymen appeared to support the "unclean thing," the language of that plous organ was like unto the language of the indignant prize-fighter, or the angry drunk who lifts up bis voice at the corner. It is true, of course, that the tramway employds have to labour seven days In the week in order to carry the languid saint to church and back again; and that the policeman is required to break the commandment lest some stray rowdy should hit the church in the eye on the Sabbath; and that the hired soprano in the fashionable choir earns filthy lucre by toiling up to G, and higher if she can manage it, with a view to attracting the opera-loving signer, and the patron of the leg show, within reach of the collection -and the church-bell soloist makes the lay hideous at a fixed salary; and the parson ollows his worldly avocation for money, and if there is no money forthcoming the flock may go and rave in Gehenna-all these things do not count. Even the trains run on Sunday, and fetch the suburban believer and the outlying convert-but that also is a matter of no Impor tance. But the proposition that libraries and art-galleries should be opened on the only day when the people who pay for these institutions have time to make use of them, has caused the solitary white bair of the Melbourne panon to Assume a vertical position from galef and horror, If the average preacher does not know how to make himself Interesting enough for the pubile to care to listen to him, then the public must loaf along the gutter and smoke its offensive short pipe on the pavement as of old, and it it wants to get access to any amusement which is better and more rational than leaning up against the lamp-post of the corner, it is to be duly arrested and fined according to the Act of that plous monarch who was a father to his people 200 years ago-or, at least, who was a father to As many of them as any one white man could well manage to be. May his name be held in reverence, for he was a good and holy potentate, who drank liberally and cursed profusely, and broke all the commandments he had ever heard of; and when he died of lush and other worldly Indulgences be left a Sabbath Osservance Act behind him for the benefit of his posterity 16 which was very numerous and has drawn its

The ancient rhymester who met his sister Ado as they were both crossing London Bridge in the thirteenth year of the First James, if he could come back to London in the fifty-third year of Victoria, would find it more easy to recognise his sister Ann than to recognise London itself. In 1615 Londen was the London of Shakespeare and Ben Johnson, and London as the wars of York and Lancaster had found and left it no more like to the London of to-day than was the flat island discovered by Hendrik Hudson in 1609 like unto the metropolitan city of 1890, which we call New York. In 1616 Kttle John Milton was beginning the study of Latin in Pawl's Schule; Bacon was living in chambers in Gray's Ian; Drayton occupied the bay window house next to the east end of St. Dunstan's Church in Fleet street; Izaak Walton had half of a shop in the same thoroughfare two doors west of Chancery lanc, and was buying his fish-hooks in Harp alley Raleigh, having finished his "History of the World," was fitting out his expedition to Guiana; Beaumont and Fletcher were living together on the Bankside, not far from the Play House, with the same cloaths and cloake, cici, between them"; and John Taylor, the #water post," was still a waterman, getting ready to start on his "Pennyless Pilgrimage." In 1616 King James was selling peerages to the highest. bidders, holding costly theatrical revels at Whitehall-on Sunday evenings, to the utter horror of the Puritans; lavishing favors upon Buckingham at the public expense, and doing all of those unaccountable things which led Sally to call him the wisest fool in Europe. In 1616 the Tower stood on the eastern verge of London, as Visscher saw it, while Whitehall was the extreme western boundary, and the city of Westminster was still a considerable distance upt oftown; the gardens of the aristocratic mansions on the Strand extended down to the Thames on the one side, or back to the open fields on the other; the streets were barrow, dirty, ill-paved, In studying the physiology of the natives of full of rule and holes, and robbers and ruffians the moon, Balsamo was much impressed with of all kindsabounded; the Fleet river, the Fleet the beauty and prefection of every part of their ditch and the Fleet Prison were filled with pesti structure, but especially that of the skin, hair, ferous inhabitants; the common people herded in and teeth; and as, owing to the absence of a poor wooden buildings, and even the merchant dense atmosphere, the astral fluid in which we princes, living in luxury over their own shops, live renders every part of their bodies trans-knew nothing of what we consider the comforts or parent, the beauty and regularity of the teeth conveniences of life. The Thames was the main highway, and in 1616, and for many years were especially noticeable.
thereafter, it had but one bridge for sister Ann to cross, The population of London
